Paterson, and W. H. Denham, representing ‘he Trent Valley Power Association, and Mr. J. H. Bumham went north re- cently to explore the water reser- voirs of the Trent Canal. They went as far as the entrance to Lake Bushkung in the County of H-alihur- ton. Apparently there is a large body of water which even in this tions till possibly the ls’c of May, at- terwards falls by reason of being held back to from 130,000 to 110,000 cubic feet, it will be realized how much it may be done to increase the average flow. As the us: of power increases th ‘ question of supply of power becomesi a paramount one for the Trent dis-‘ trict, and it will require all the en ergies of the people and the governâ€" ment to work it out successfully. The water is there, fortunately. It is a question of energy and push. Here tofore, especially in the earlier stag- es, the Trent Canal, like a great many other things, was made just a: means to an end, but if a success is to be made of it, it must be by means of cutting out politics as far as possible and putting in brains in- stead. This whole district would have been left millions of dollars better off froxn waste alone if “the inter- ests" had not had such complete con- trol over, if the people had put a little comman sense into the matter plausible sharps circulated notices to the effect that the authorities, desir- inb to establish a new tom: in the plains near Nakhitch-ewam, on the Don were prepared to give anyone a free title to 1,000 square yards of land on conditicn that the settlers fianced in their anctmcnts immediately and unâ€" A NEW SWILXDLE Berlin, J1me 19.â€"The Berliner Tagec blatt reports from St. Pebersburg a remarkable swimfling affair which, however, is not without its humofâ€" one side.

Thousands of people rushed to the spot, where they were received by the Swindlers, who wasted them in staking out their plots, and sold them, at high prices. Large quantit- ies of material for fencing. On the following day the men had disappeared. but in their places there arrived a detachment of police, headed by the town prefect, frorfi Nakhdtchevau. and the disappointed setulers not only found themselves under arrest for occupying hand with- out Legal authority, but lost all their ‘,!_\.

June Itsâ€"An enemy in the form of a destructive disease has declared war, with good eflect so far, on the caterpillars, which are a plague in large sections of Ontario and QuebeC. and millions of the inseCts are dying of it. according to Dr.‘ Gordon Hewâ€" itt. chief entomologist at the Qt- tawa experimental farm. From investigations made by Dr. Hewitt, and his stafi, the disease is general all over the district, and not merely confined to certain areas- ;So destructive is the disease that it Hooks at present as it there will not Ibe such a bald plague of caterpillars next year as there has been this year and last. Disease Attacks T he Caterpillar English Train Narrowly Escaped Be- ing Wrecked In Tunnel. LONDON. Juno ‘24.â€"-What is sus- pected to have iM‘Cll a militant suffra- gette attempt to wreck an "YDT'QrF train from London to Plymouth in a tunnel near Dcvonport on Saturday. is reported to-‘lay. A motor belwing to the London Southwestern Rail- way. while proceeding through the tunnel 81011;: the rails. came in con- tact with a heavy obstacle. The motor- nxan made a search and discovered to heavy sleepers wedged between the metals over which the express train was due to pass. The sleepers were removed just as the long train thun- dered through the tunnel. Mrs. Beatrice H. Saunders, the fin- ancial secretary of the Women's 80- cial and Political Union, who, with five other officials of the militant sui- iragette organization, was sentenced to 15 months' imprisonment. on June 17, for conspiring to commit malicious damage to property, was released on license last evening because of ill- health, owing to he: refusal to take ‘ food. THE DANGER Consumption May Foliow Unless its Ranges Are Checked every woman who falls a, victim to anaemiaâ€"that is bloodlessness. They become listless, feel too weak. too wretched and too helpless to take prompt steps to stop the tro‘l‘l Too often, through neglect, thv into a Worse condition, forgetting that anaemia fremently leads on' to consumption. If you are anaemic in the least degree you should lose no time in beginning treatment, to in- crease and enrich the blood supply. To do this there is no other mefrlcine so good as Dr. Williams’ Pink Pills. Every d'ose helps make rich, red blood, which drives out disease and brings again the bloom of health tr pale and sallow cheeks. There are u-- _I, thou :‘_LndS of women and growingl girl‘. in Canada who owe their pres ent ; (,Od health to the timely use of Dr. Williams' Pink Pills. Among thcsz who have been restored to heali'n by this great medicine is Mi" . Rose Neville, Mount Forest, Ont... who says: “Dr. Williams' Pink Pills performed almost a. miracle in IN" case. I was a. victim of anaemia, in what my friends considered a dangerâ€" ous form. I was very pale, always tired out, suffered from severe head- aches, and had no appetite. I was taking doctor‘s medicine for .‘aiong timeâ€"in fact I tried two doctorsâ€"- but instead of improving I seemed ta ‘be growing worse. My parents were .at a. loss to know what to do for me and thought I would not recover. Then a friend advised Dr. inlI'Li-ams‘ Pink Pills and I had Only taken them a. few weeks when I began to feel better. This greatly encouraged me and I continued taking. thezP‘ivlls for some time longer, and found my health again as g'Ood as ever «it had been. In fact I am stronger than ever I was before. I have advised the use of ‘Dr. Wil‘fiams’. Pink Pills to other girls who have found the re- sults equally beneficial."

June 24.â€"-Two were fatally injured and four were hurt in a wreck last night on the Kippewa branch of the C.P.R. run- mng from Timiskaming to Mattawa. The two who. it is thought, will sue- cumb to their injuries are the two older daughters of Henry Morell, M P P. for Nipissing. The others re- ported to be injured are the younger Miss Morell, Miss Lillian Fayette of North Bay, Alois Hennessy. shoe trav- eler, and_Chief of Police Milroy of Mattawa. The injured were all taken to the hospital at Mattawa, and are being cared for there. ,1--- M:lr: ~-__.° , The wreck happened nineteen miles north of Mattawa, and was caused by a derailment. The railway runs through a wild, rocky country along the bank of the Ottawa River. The right of way in many places is cut out of the side of the mountain, with the river tumbling far below. It is used largely by tourists and lumbermen. The Misses Morell were returning from the convent at Villemarie to at- tend their father's wedding. set for Monday next. The elder girl is 13 years of age. Miss Payette was also on her way home from the convent to visit her parents. Kineotphone is Edison’s Latest In his wonderful invention, the kinetophone, Thomas A. Edison has given us pictures that not only moVa, but talk. The kinetophone is a com- binatioa of the moving picture ma- ! chine and the phonograph, and its! effects are weirdly realistic. The maâ€"! chine is so constructed that the» sounds ! of the voices of the actors in the pic-E ture drama are reproduced in the: most natural way. When the figures : appear to be walking to the front of; the stage their Voices get louder as they get nearer to the audience and softer as they retreat. When a. plate is smashed the noise of breaking crockery is distinctly heard. The notes of the piano or violin are re- produced when an actor plays on one of these instruments. the expression and time being clearly marked. Whistling", singing, opening and shut- ting of d'dors, stage thunder, etc.. all are heard. Talking pictures are also to be seen in a similar invention, the klino- plaet'i-k'en, at the Scala Theatre, Lon- don. The effects here are most won- derful- Dancers come from the wings, perform and sing, and retire to the wings again, and after applause come and bow their acknowledgments to the audience in the most natural manner. What is more, the stage is not in darkness, but is perfectly Bright. and there is no screen. The il- lzus'ion of living people singing and dancing as in a real theatre is thus almost complete, for the figures do almost everything that a living art- ist can do. Sir Jonathan Hutchinson Dies In London, Aged 85 LONDON, June 24.â€"Sir Jonathan Hutchinson, the eminent surgeon, is dead Sir Jonathan Hutchinson, emeritus professor of surgery London Hospital College, was born at Selb‘y ‘Julyj‘23, 1828, the second son of Jonathani Hutchinson and Elizabeth Massey. Educated at Selby, York, and St.‘ Bartholomew’s Hospital, London, he became president of the Royal Col-E lege of. Surgeons in 1889â€"90. He was; Huntetian professor at the Royal Col- lege of Surgeons, a member of. theft Royal Commission on Smallpox Hos-l pitals in 1884, and on Vaccination in‘ 1890-96. l One of the most distinguished ora- tors of the House of Lords confesses that he once forgot his real name. Lord Rathmore, who was raised to the peerage in 1895, has no doubt become accustomed to the title by now. In the early days of his gran- deur, however, he was nonplussed when a French railway official sud- denly required his name. He could remember that he used to be called Plunket, but had to consult his card case in order to learn his new desig- nation.-â€"L9ndqn ChroninQ, . He was created a Knight in 1908, and had the degrees of F.R.C.S., M.D., LL.D., and F.R.S. Not only did he occupy a prominent position as a con- sulting surgeon, but he was the author of a number of important publica. tions. Might be Right Archbishop Ryan was visiting a small parish in a mining district one day for the purpose of adminisflerin-g confirmation, and asked one nerVOus little girl what matrimony was. “It is a. state of terrible torment which those who enter are compelled to unâ€" dergo for a time to prepare them for a brighter and better world." she said. “No, no," rem‘onstrated her rector: “that isn’t matrimony; that’s the definition of purgatory.” “Leave her‘ alone.” Said the archbishop; may- be she is right.

One night they stayed at a cafe and oc- cupied the same r00m. Two hours afâ€" ter retiring one of them got up, seized a water bottle, and hurled it at the head of his friend, smasning it against the wall. He then returned to bed and was perfectly unconscious of the act. Referring to somnambulistic auto- Ematism the committing of acts quite unconsciously and without any re- collection, Sir George mentions that everybody is subject to its milder ’forms. The pianist can play difficult music while holding conversation on ‘general subjects. One Can run up Se?- ieral flights of stairs in the dark, au- {tomatically magnizing when eaCh {flight is reached, without counting litlxe steps‘ The man-y remarkable stories which haVe been told of persons falling froxn windows, or a. sommambul-istic state are supplemented by some ex- traordinary cases which are related by Sir George H. Savage. But this automation sometimes as- sumes a somewhat more serious form, and the case is mentioned of a. country man of middle age, active, healthy and sober in his habits, who came to London to consult his soli- citdr. Calling on a Tuesday morning he was told to call again at 3 0’. clock. He did not keep the appointment, and was not seen again until the fol- lowing Friday, when he turned up at the office at 3.30, apologizing for beâ€" ing half an hour late, owing to his watch having stopped. He was under the impression that the day was still Tuesday, and had no knowledge of what he had done during the inter- 1vening time. He recognized that he ihad not shaved, but seemed to have washed, dressed and eaten regularly. Epilepsy is the cause of many acts of somnambulistic automation, and Sir George tells the story of a man who had passed a brilliant school and university career, and eventually entered the government service. He obtained an appointment abroad and left for the east in good health but at Port Said he disappeared. After many months, his friends heard that he was in a state of destitution far from where he landed, but he had no recollection of his movements :t- her he left the boat. After careful nursing he was ready for work. He took a priVa‘os secretaryship in the colonies, where he soon proved his ability, but he once more disap- peared and was again found in a state of poverty in quite another part of the world. A third time he started work on a ranch and was making a success of it when he again vanished, and on his being disâ€" covered in a state of great distress some months after he was placed in an asylum.
